Volumetric strain calculator

Volumetric strain, also known as bulk strain or volume strain, is a measure of the change in volume of a material under the influence of stress or pressure. It is defined as the ratio of the change in volume ($\Delta V$) to the original volume ($V$) of the material. The formula for volumetric strain (ϵvol​) in full SI units is given by:

​

where:

• ϵvol​ is the volumetric strain (dimensionless),
• $\Delta V$ is the change in volume (in cubic meters, m³),
• $V$ is the original volume (in cubic meters, m³).
